Deep Space Planet Leader

The maintenance period of just two and a half years passed in a hurry...

The human army almost turned this Riley star upside down, but still couldn’t find a better one. More about the traces of "Enlightenment Civilization". The other party seemed to come and leave in a hurry, leaving only an unpredictable breeze.

Since the maintenance and repair work of Kunlun Mountains has been completed, humans are also impossible to continue surveying on this planet, and the entire fleet is ready to start anew.

However, the past two years have seen fairly good technological development.

First of all, the first "Falcon-III" destroyer appeared in this world.

The design work of the "Falcon-III" destroyer has begun in the past several decades. During the two-year-long manufacturing process, several scientific teams have carried out research on various difficulties. After emergency research, a more powerful magnetic field was applied to every corner of the spaceship.

"Eagle Falcon-III" spaceship uses super-magnetism-A material to realize the interstellar stamping launching technology with better performance, its mobility will become better, and weapons such as electromagnetic guns and ion guns , Will become more powerful, higher and faster.

Simply estimate that the firepower of a "Falcon-III" is comparable to the previous two "Falcon-II"!

This is a very big improvement, because the Kunlun Mountains have a limited population, and the spaceship that can be maintained before the industrial upgrade is also limited.

Currently, the strength of the human army includes four Eagle Falcon destroyers and 26 Haiyan-III frigates.

A falcon-type destroyer needs three thousand permanent soldiers, and a Haiyan-class frigate needs two hundred permanent soldiers. In total, the total number of permanent soldiers is 17,000.

These are just resident soldiers. Soldiers have to hibernate, take turns, and return to the mothership to recuperate. It is impossible to perform long-term military missions in the vast universe. Calculated in this way, the total number of soldiers on holiday has almost reached 100,000.

The Kunlun Mountains itself requires a large number of soldiers to be able to exert true strength. The firepower of the Kunlun Mountains is far more powerful than these small and medium-sized spaceships. There are a large number of logistics personnel, engineers, and all kinds of messy R&D personnel. If so, the relevant military population exceeds 500,000!

This kind of military strength is already the limit that society can carry, and it can't be more.

The entire civilization is impossible. Everyone will become a soldier, or everybody will maintain a spaceship and become a military engineer. This is certainly unrealistic.

It is more important for mankind to maintain the normal operation of all walks of life and maintain social stability. If spaceship is created, there is not enough population, or there is not enough maintenance capacity, it has been idle forever, and it will soon be abandoned...

So, what people can do is to improve the quality as much as possible. , Not quantity.

If it is only the quantity, it can be made up for by various mass-produced drones.

Apart from this, for the Kunlun Mountains mothership, it has also been greatly improved. After all, even the Eagle-III type uses a stronger magnetic field, so the mothership Related military equipment can also be upgraded.

In addition, the installation of the magnetic field generator will make the Kunlun Mountains wear less by cosmic particles, and the mothership can accelerate to higher speeds. Probably from the original rated speed of light of 10%, it has risen to 11%, but don’t underestimate the difference of 1% of the speed of light. This is already a very good achievement. The acceleration of kinetic energy is really not easy. Can't ask for too much.

In the meeting this time before departure, Zhang Yuan summarized the achievements of the past two years and the main research directions for the next.

"...Next, there are two main contents to be carried out. The first is to miniaturize and normalize the supermagnet-A material.

"If this kind of magnetic field Technology can be applied to drones, and the performance of drones will undergo a qualitative change. "

"If a larger magnetic field can be used in industry, it can also promote the upgrading of certain industries...especially the plasma smelting body refinement system under the ultra-high magnetic field environment, and the development of special metal materials Research and development. This aspect is the top priority. "

"Even though the theory of subatomic materials science has never been a breakthrough...but we don't insist on it. Let's first develop what can be developed to the best. "

Materials science is the material basis for human survival and development, and it is also the core of all scientific and technological progress industries; the continuous development of new materials is an important yardstick for measuring the level of social technology and future scientific and technological development.

The development of many technologies is essentially the development of materials science. Humans smelted bronze and black iron, which opened a new era.

The successful development of ultra-pure silicon and gallium arsenide , Leading to the birth of large-scale and very large-scale integrated circuits, which increased the computing speed of computers from hundreds of thousands of times per second to hundreds of billions; the core part of the turbine engine is the turbine blade, which requires a high temperature of about 1500 degrees. It needs high temperature resistance and high pressure resistance. After 40 years of hard work, in 1980, the United States officially developed a qualified dual-phase nickel-based alloy, which made the birth of turbine engines possible.

Of course, these All are Old Huang has experienced that under the ultra-high magnetic field, ordering all the atoms in the material to achieve higher performance is an important topic at present.

Many people in the Conference Hall are silent. , And no one issued a military order, saying that there will be a breakthrough in several decades in the future. It is really difficult to build a foundation in this area. It requires a lot of genius and inspiration, and even a trace of good luck.

Speaking of this, Zhang Yuan paused for a while, and then continued: "Don't think that our civilization is already very strong and can feed everyone with no difficulty. We are far from enough. Can we build a Dyson ball? And can't. "

"Can we hollow out a metal planet and build a planetary spaceship?" It may be possible, but it will take tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years! "

"Our development path still has a long way to go. "

"Secondly, it is about the study of brain-assisted memory chips. The materials in the laboratory are sufficient, enough to spend on the next footing...so please don't worry about resources. "

"Next, I invite Professor Luo from the Human Brain Research Institute to introduce the latest development of the brain-assisted memory chip! "

Brain-assisted memory chip!

The people underneath were a little commotion, and many reporters also refocused their attention and showed interest. At each summary meeting, they were the most That’s the only thing I’m interested in.

Since Professor Li Zhendong cracked some of the memory codes in neural networks several decades ago, there have also been some small breakthroughs in the research of brain-assisted memory chips. Mouth...

Actually, the research on human brain chips has been going on for thousands of years, and there are many application results on Earth. For example, love chips can make people meet certain lovers , It produces the sweet feeling of first love. This kind of chip controls the derailment rate of the entire society, and things like unwritten rules are also greatly reduced, which greatly increases the clarity of the entire society.

What else is there to focus on? Chips can make people happily engage in certain tasks...Some boring studies are no longer so boring, but full of fun.

In fact, these chips are all controlled by the brain. The secretion of these hormones, which is to regulate the conditions for the production of "happiness", to achieve a certain purpose, the principle and practical operation are not particularly difficult.
